I don't have the exact figures on hand, but I would say that there are proportionally more researchers in Canada than there are in the U.K. What's interesting is that there was a study by the University of the Arctic that was released in the summer of 2023 that looked at the ranking of countries in producing Arctic science publications. It ranked Canada third in the world when it came to the volume of Arctic science publications and put the U.K. at number six. Canada is a major player in Arctic science and, as the U.K., we're very keen and grateful for the partnership that we have with your federal research agencies and others.
